Satoshi Chiba's novel series is gigantic. According to the Japanese wiki, it started in 1988 and only concluded last year. Mecha in a world resembling medieval Europe, with a lot of emphasis on the rise and fall of nations and political scheming.
Seikoku 1092: 19 volumes and 2 side stories Seikoku Oukami-den: 4 volumes Seikoku Gunryuu-den: 23 volumes and 5 side stories. There's also a short series set in the same world by another author. |

“Wares” reminds me of browsing the internet as a child...
“We got ROMs, we got WAREZ!” |

Wow. You're not joking, right? 
Since this looked awesome, I was really interested in reading this when I saw the article, but I might just want to stick with the reboot instead. |

@vanfanel: With those 53 volumes and side stories you mentioned, I am surprised this series hasn't already had TV or web anime adaptations. 23 volumes could easily cover 120+ episodes and those 7 side-stories could cover 22 episodes.

Yep; considering its longevity and the wealth of material available, I also thought it was odd that nobody had taken a crack at it until now. OTOH, Guin Saga had 100+ volumes out before it got an anime, so I guess sometimes it just takes time for the stars to align. |
